correctly

In the fecal energy, explain the relationship of the fecal output of high fiber diet with starch base diet.

The relationship of fecal output to high fiber diet and starch base diet is that, fecal output or fecal loss
will be much higher in high fiber diet than in starch based diets.

Give one factor that can alter the digestibility of the sample during assay

Physiological Conditions

What is the recommended duration of the test trials

A digestibility trial is consist of three periods with each period lasting of 7 up to 10 days

What are the parameters measured to calculate METABOLIZABLE energy

The parameters measured to calculate METABOLIZABLE energy includes Digestible Energy, urinary
energy and gaseous energy.

Give one problem in doing in vivo technique in digestible trials assays

The problem in doing in vivo technique in digestible trials assays is that it takes 7-21 days before the
animal can adjust to the feed before result is obtained. This period of time contrasts the duration of
digestible trials which is also 7-21 days.

What chemical used in digestible trial to measure the amount of digested nutrient.

Digestible crude protein, digestible crude fiber, digestible nitrogen free extract and digestible ether
extract

Why males are preferred as experimental animal during the trials

Male animals are more preferred during trials because it is easier to separate the feces from urine.
What is digestible trials

An estimation of the total amount of a certain nutrient absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract is give
by digestion experiments

What is the difference between internal and external indicators in measuring digestibility of the food

When we say internal indicators these are foods organic components. While the substances that are
added to foods are external indicators

It is the energy released during the combustion with release of oxygen

Gross Energy

It is the accurate measurement of energy consume by the animal

gross Energy

HOW NIR operates or what is the theory behind this test

Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy operates by identifying the food properties and it's nutritional
values. The theory behind it is that it reflect the types and proportions of organic structures within a
material

This is the movement of energy in the body on one organism

Bioenergetics

Differentiate in vivo and in vitro

Both in vivo and in vitro determines the feeds digestibility they differ in duration, invivo takes a long
time while in vitro is rapid and takes a short time
